Since I am relatively new to the TDI world of ownership ('91 200tdi w/ 125k) I am starting to redefine what is "normal".
I am wondering how "smelly" the exhaust should be? I have a strong diesel exhaust odor that fills my garage while the truck is idling, small amounts of smoke on startup until warm, and also when under power. These all seem "normal" but after driving it I smell diesel exhaust all day.
Is the "smelly diesel odor cologne" just part of the fun of having a diesel?
Thanks!
